Lennart's EmacsW32+Emacs does that for Windows. my humble ErgoEmacs does it. David Reitter's AquamacEmacs does it. all these by default have keybindings that's radically different from GNU Emacs. (in Lennart's EmacsW32 you have to turn it on.) They also add various UI improvements
I'd be more impressed by that claim if it were actually difficult to do. But making emacs segfault on startup would qualify as a UI improvement, so ...
